About the workshop 
The war in Ukraine has caused profound and underreported environmental damage, from polluted water sources and destroyed farmland to risks affecting energy infrastructure and ecosystems. These impacts are reshaping landscapes and communities, yet remain largely absent from mainstream conflict coverage. 
This 7-month hybrid program supports photographers and visual journalists in documenting these issues with depth and rigor, while connecting their work to broader European and global environmental debates. 
Open to 10-12 mid-career Ukrainian or Ukraine-based documentary photographers and photojournalists, the workshop combines online lectures, self-paced learning, in-person lab and personal mentorship. Through autonomous process and collective framework, participants will develop a strong investigative visual project, ready to be pitched or published.
